Hi all! I just want to know if it is possible to connect the Fortin keyoverride SL2 bypass module on the compustar 2W900FMAS remote starter? Because the CM3000 brain do not have the Rs232 plug... Thank you!

It is still possible to use the Fortin KeyOveride SL2 with the CM3000 brain.  Just go with the W2W mode ( listed in the SL2 install guide as "Without Data-Link").   Usually works flawlessly.
Soldering is fun!

no, but then again its just my preferance. Sure it does save time but i ran it so many problems im not willing to give it another chance. I have given the rs232 second chances but i keep getting screwed over. So, no more data for me. all w2w.

compustar cm5200 + idatalink

bad tach output

about 3-5 months ago. but i dont mind the w2w not much more to hookup, and if something goes wrong, i can pinpoint it.

Well the Cm6 and the data protocols are good.

For the cansl2 or now which is the CANSL-PL has good data to data with the compustar controllers. Make sure you change option 2-11 to setting number 2. Switching it from ADS to Fortin.

As for the ADS and the cm5 series controllers the only Tach issue i ran into were for the Gm's. Maybe you should give the CM6 a try. =)
